' PAGE TWO Aviafion ,Not so many years ago a plane flying through lute air was sure to turn all eyes skyward. Today planes streak overhead constantly and only the unusual aircraft or stunt flying commands atten_ tion from below. Aviation has arrived as an in dustry and as a mode of transportation. irn this "air age" we live in, it would seem logi oat that any progressive center of learning would add a course in flight instruction to its curriculum. 'The suggestion that Penn State offer its students regularly-adcredited course in flight control is riot new. A petition asking for the college authori ties to adopt such a plan was signed by, almost 1,&00 stndents. Though this popular demand Was voice& many months ago, no word has yet been issued as to what .action the prope r authorities are taking on this matter. We bring this plan up for discussion now be-; r3ause•we.think that all of the facilities, necessary :for presenting such a :course will soon be available. A. -magnificent new airport, conveniently located on the outskirts of town, is now nearing comple ti.on.. With hosts of former Army and Navy pilots ou Ahe'carnpus, it, should, be,possible to locate a Vacuity staff fo r teaching flight control. The financing of such a venture would also be feaSible >n, view of the Tact that the GI Bill of Rights, al )owrs'a lot more for tuition each year than-Penn .fate charges its students. On a campus predomi- D.antly peopled 'by veterans, that should be asSur_ mice enough that those interested will be able to participate fully in a flying program. To even consider the initiation of such a pro gram by this spring, the paper work must be done now. The proper authorities should not put off this wanted addition to the curriculum any longer. —Lewis L.

However, certain th!ngs on our campus have not changed since the days or Farmers' High School. When Penn State's enrollment was small enough, the present system ol:Jseatinig students at football games - was adequate. 'However, alfter two exhibitions of complete confusion at New Beaver Field, I am convinced that something must be done to get some semblance of order in. the stn 'dent sections. As , it is, one has .to arrive at the 'field by noon in order to get . a seat on the 40- yard the. . . . • . . :The student .body now ,too large •'ifor..this system.and I propose that conunitteeibe,,appointed to• look into the situation;Vit least . classes should have a.,specific section . , lettered (on their- :tickets (and each section haVe a different colored ticket, sincelthe,present.ones are of 'the:same Color, con fusing everyone.!

Wives, plus arnanty 'tickets sold. in the.,:,studerit sections by. the :Ath letic Association,. only half the stadium is as signed to .the '!steady customers,:' with no plan, save an upper and lower 'class distinction (which is ignored by many), for a seating arrangement. Many ;people 'standing up through '..Sialturday's game were 'students who PAID FOR THEIR SEATS. Surely no extra expense would be involved in creating some new method of seating by next Fall—at which time I will have graduated. This is on outlaw request, Mr. Editor, requir ing huge sums of money as for a Student Union, Building, but it is one of prime importance 'since it too affects each and : every undergradute at Penn State. It is slamething that can be done now and not in the distant future. Yours for a better, up-to-date Penn State. Murray D.
